San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria has been elected vice president of the United States Conference of Mayors, it was announced Wednesday.
The USCM is the official, non-partisan organization of cities with populations of 30,000 or more. There are more than 1,400 cities in the country.
“I am honored by this opportunity to serve as vice president of the United States Conference of Mayors,” Gloria said.
“This is an extremely challenging time for America’s cities, as we work through a deeply divided environment in Washington, D.C., to deliver more housing that working families can afford, lower the cost of living, and keep our communities safe.
